Weekly Session #3 Follow-Up + Founders Directory
Hi everyone,
Thank you for the lively session yesterday. It was great to see the progress on your projects, and we'd be happy to feature them on the HAVAC website.
Resources discussed:
The Founders Directory has just gone live on the website. We hope to make this the best place to meet present and past Haverford founders.
As always, Weekly Session #4 will be next Friday, 04/03, 7-8 PM in the VCAM Makerspace.
We will be joined by Harry Levin ‘14 (Associate, Ballard Spahr LLP). Harry will chat about various startup-relevant topics like IP protection, registering your startup, cap tables, vesting schedules, etc., and provide ongoing resources.
With feedback from the community (thanks Jerry, Sunil & AJ!), every weekly session moving forward will begin by featuring our favourite product of the week, and a mini-analysis of one innovation/entrepreneurship/product-adjacent news. We hope this will be a great source of product ideas and industry insight.
Fahim will start it off by analyzing the current ecosystem and hype around humanoid robots, but we are very excited to hear from you moving forward.
There will be no right way to do this. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on what happened and its implications.
